Thanks to the new pg_stat_xact_user_functions and
pg_stat_xact_user_tables views in 9.1, it will be possible to
automatically sample which functions uses which functions/tables to
generate a nice directional graph of the dependency tree, based on
recent real-life activity, excluding any unused

What's a not-to-follow dependency?
In case of extensions the code follows dependencies to walk on all
objects. We already have the problem that an extension depending on
another is not relocatable, because 'ALTER EXTENSION SET SCHEMA' would
walk to

It would be equally useful if it warned you when trying to drop a

This would only work for a small subset of cases, so the argument can be
made that it is less surprising to say, we don't track

Making it work for language SQL would be nice, though.
Please consider a new DEPENDENCY_XXX constant for that though, because
otherwise I think it could cause problems in the extension's dependency
tracking. Even with a new DEPENDENCY_FUNCALL or other

When a function is created, the system validates the syntax and
complains if any function the created function attempts to call is
missing.
I think this is really good, since it traps typos and warns you if you
have forgotten to install any functions your function depends on.
It would be equally
